Vixen Media Group, commonly referred to as Vixen, is an Internet pornography production company located in Los Angeles, California.

Company

Vixen Media Group was founded in 2014 by French entrepreneur and director Greg Lansky, CEO of GL Web Media and Strike 3 Holding along with partners Steve Matthyssen and Mike Miller.[2]

Vixen Media Group owns and operates eight online adult film sites: Vixen, Tushy, Blacked, Blacked Raw, Tushy Raw, Deeper, Slayed, and Milfy. Slayed was launched in August 2021, and is the first all-girl brand, and was created as part of a mission to revolutionize female sex portrayals while attracting an audience of all genders and sexualities.[3][4]
